Chemistry can be a good and bad thing. Chemistry is good when you make love with it. Chemistry is bad when you make crack with it.

Wait, so what if Pokémon's pic is a big close-up of Pikachu?

Oh gawd. At LEAST put the Charizard or Blastoise picture up...

Some people on this board make my brain explode. Just for the record, there's nobody in this topic that actually thinks that Metal Gear would "SFF" Halo, right?

Hah! Who would ever think that? That's as insane as MGS SFFing Kingdom Hear--- oh... oh wait.




No, I really don't believe it.

I've got the lowest prediction by far here, so when Civilization does better than expected, I'll get the first point!

Mines lower

It would be good if Pokemon's picture was the three original starters. And like, Mewtwo.

hmm.. judging from that picture, we're probably not going to get any indication that it's a series contest besides the best. series. ever. next to the poll. I wonder if this will make a difference..?

That's what the Star Ocean people are hoping, but I hope it's a group of Pokemon waiting to fight like that SSBM pic against FFX.

If this is the picture standard, I'm less sure of SH > FE and Pokemon > Star Ocean.

Although at the same time they reassure me of SF > RE and MM > MK.

This hurts because while Legend of Zelda is my favorite series, Civilization is in the top 10 (if you count Alpha Centauri as part of the series which I do).

Civilization II and Civilization IV rock my socks.

I really hope Dias doesn't. Fayt needs to be plastered all over that Star Ocean picture, or at least some SO3 character.

That works, too. Back when mnm made that picture topic, I ended up using SO3's cover art. It has Fayt all over it, so it works.

Come on now. Pics may have a slight impact, but the names still are going to be there. Don't look for the pic to have any impact outside of swing matches.

I'm not a big fan of Fayt, then again I haven't completed SO3 yet. Cliff is my fav character of SO3 so far. Him and that Nox fellow. I prefer the SO2 cast by far though. I need a damn rom of SO1.

No its so right. The only chance Street Fighter has is if the Resident Evil pic is a close up of Alfred cross-dressing as Alexia.

RE should just get a picture of a zombie or a Tyrant >_>

ertyu and VeghEsther are truly proof that there is much about this world we still do not understand.
Tatsumaki Senpuu | Posted 7/1/2006 5:32:01 PM | message detail
Fayt's not the best Star Ocean character (Nel > the rest), but he has the advantage of being the main character, being on the box art, and so on. It's best he's there over any other Star Ocean character, if SO even gets a character.

I'm sorry HM, but the best SO characters are most definitely Dias, Bowman, Leon, Celine, and Indalecio. Any combo of those peeps will be good.

The optimal picture includes a picture of the most known character from the most popular game -- Star Ocean 3 and Fayt.

It saddens me that SO3 is more popular than SO2. SO2 is just a lot more compelling and gets the ball moving a lot faster. The story picks up immeditally when you get on Excel IMO. In SO3, your travelling from quite a few planets, and while the big "omg war" thing is cool, your running away from the baddies most of the time. Maybe I just haven't gotten into the heart of the game yet.

The Zelda vs Civilization picture is great.

Indeed, you dunno what yer missing Draco. The private actions sequences and connections between linear and non-linear storylines is beyond your imagination. You can do quite a lot of whatever you want, without forgetting any key elements of the main storyline. Its amazing indeed.
